The boy who saved a koala has returned in a new adventure for NRMA, protecting more of the vulnerable species by removing markers tied to trees set to be cut down.
After being altered to remove a scene of Sammy climbing a ladder resting against a power pole, the footage used in the original campaign has been repurposed over recent years, particularly in communications from the brand over the 2019-20 summer bushfire crisis. The campaign won a gold Effie in 2020 and was this month awarded a Gold Tangram for Effectiveness.
NRMA credits the campaign with making it the third strongest brand in Australia and strongest insurance brand in the world, according to Brand Finance’s reputable Brand Strength Index.
